Game On

New Game of Thrones Trailer Teases the Show’s Biggest Reunion Yet

Starting with last season and really ramping up this year, Game of Thrones has been efficiently re-uniting the once-scattered cast of the HBO series. Arya briefly saw her direwolf; Sansa has found both Bran and Jon. But none of those big Stark reunion moments have as much history behind them as the ones we will potentially see next Sunday. The new Episode 4 trailer teases Brienne and Pod still sparring, Littlefinger still creeping (with a very significant weapon), Sansa doing admin work, and, at long last, Arya within sight of Winterfell.

Before they were ripped apart, the Stark kids had very little time in the Season 1 premiere to establish their relationships. In fact, Sansa and Jon never shared the screen together, and Sansa and Bran only had this very low-key moment in the courtyard to lay track for their sibling dynamic. It’s really nothing at all.

But Arya had significant interactions with the entire Stark brood. It’s too bad she already missed her favorite brother, Jon, at Winterfell—but there’s still this fun Bran moment to inform Arya meeting up with her younger brother.

More significant yet is the history shared between Sansa and Arya, who traveled all the way to King’s Landing together. This reunion should yield some very meaty drama.

Plus, Arya will also be seeing Brienne (whom she rejected in Season 4) and Littlefinger (whom she dodged in Season 3) again for the first time. So Winterfell is about to get very fun.

Elsewhere in Westeros, Jaime is trying to get back to his scheming sister and the emissary from the Iron Bank with the gold he and Bronn won at Highgarden.

Meanwhile, Team Targaryen is doing some beach arguing, cave spelunking, and possibly some Theon welcoming.

But all of that might just be a preamble. The last shot of the trailer is of Drogon, who very much means business. Are we about to get our first dragon battle of the season? Stay tuned as Season 7, Episode 4: “The Spoils of War” premieres Sunday, August 6, on HBO.
